Cleanest City In The Philippines, 4K Moto Vlog

[@udirtypuppy5174]

San Carlos City is a "hidden gem" and the place i call home. We are an environmental award winning small city with great political leadership and a passion for a clean future for our children. The cost of living is also very reasonable with an emphasis on providing housing and aid for those less fortunate fellow citizens.

[@qadventures]

Wow!!! Thank you for the perspective

[@DTDakin0007]

Hi Derek and Ai. It looks like an extensive cleanup program was done in the past and the local people are taking some pride and making an effort to keep it clean. Impressive!

[@MC-vg4tm]

thank you for this vlog.. we miss our hometown, a lot has changed. I remember in HS the only place we go after school were Galconda, Excelsior ans Amie’s restaurants😉

[@qadventures]

"Home town"... wow!!! My privilege

[@edic2619]

Great job Q

[@qadventures]

🙏🫶😇♥️

[@zachary261]

I remember going there in the 90s. I think there was just one traffic light for the whole city and there were not many people around. There were no malls around and the biggest industry there was a sugar milling company. It also gets very dark in the evening. If you like peace and quiet, that's the perfect place....I hope.

Nice video. There's 2 swimming pools in People's Park.

[@qadventures]

Thank you, Calvin. Had a new toy of the DJI Osmo Action 4 so I though I put it in play

[@thebeachoflife]

Peoples Park is a cool place to chill. It was recently rennovated too,

[@qadventures]

Definitely was

[@paulk8444]

Calvin's (sunshine shoulders) town as it looks really nice town of 132,600 people as it's only 3 hours to Lapu-lapu and as you know me Bro I Love these kinds of Exploratory rides as it looks like you and Ai are having a Great time and when you pointed out the Pit Bull it reminded me of my last dog Buster Brown that was 100% and Smartest and Loyal dog i ever had. Gotta call / text you and hoping for a "Live" soon .. Thanks Bro as you inspire me and so Happy to see you on Paul's & Calvin's channel. I Love this video as you made it another place i now want to check out.! Your a Great PI Ambassador

[@rangerdanger5426]

You need to go over to Sipaway Island.

[@qadventures]

Soon, we will

[@josephkumnick7696]

A good Lapu Lapu Morning to you guys. You Home now?

[@qadventures]

Yes, Joe. But super busy day today

[@Juze81]

Some part of manilla where the poor people live, it is clean. It was supprice, but they r proud how clean they area is. I do not remember the place, but yeah. It was suprising to see. I am not sure if city or people wash the streets, but yeah.

[@qadventures]

Wow!!! I gotta dig that up

[@henrytheexplorer808]

New subscriber 🤙thank you

[@qadventures]

Thank you, giys!!!

[@Ironic_Jihad]

Now foreigners will be flocking there for the cleanliness. 😢

[@qadventures]

Oh... I'm sorry if you are a resident there. It's just so nice there, I couldn't resist

[@edic2619]

CITY CLEANING CREW... All cities should have the best cleaning crew in THE TOURIST AREAS. A tourist ONLY BRINGS $ IN, they take very little of the city resources. Tourists want to come to the city IF IS CLEAN.

[@qadventures]

Agreed

[@ChuckFasst]

Good looking city. Say, just saw you with Old Dog and I have seen how you are helping Regular Guy get up on two wheels. Can you answer me this: Suppose an American expat shows up with a driver's license that is not valid, because it has been taken by his home state. What can he do?

[@qadventures]

Technically... your license no good here either. Realistically, the Philippines will have no idea of the specifics back home. As long as your license doesn't have an past expiration date. I am NOT advising you one way or the other

[@michaeldemarillac9992]

Without a valid USA Licence you cannot get an accompanying international licence and cannot drive in PI. If you still rode you would be uninsurable and in breach of the law. Having said that if you get a SRRV visa, like a retirement visa, you can apply for a Philippines driver's licence by completing the licence issue requirements. In your situation I would recommend you go interstate and get a new licence in the USA, if you wish to ride/drive in PI.

[@davidwatson2785]

Not to mention no major traffic 😊😊😊😊

[@qadventures]

Almost non existent

[@c.a.sreacts]

how fast is this bike

[@qadventures]

Max out at 115 km/h

[@ChimpsAI]

I'm going to have to get used to there being no (or few) stop signs and lights in the Philippines. I imagine it is pretty scary at first. 😳

[@qadventures]

There are human beings (traffic enforcers) in the cities that direct traffic

[@ericsolkamans-kj2fd]

Ni hau ma.... I know, I spell it phonetically. My Chinese is very limited. My Wife know two Chinese languages and about ~12 dialect of spoken language in the Philippines.

[@qadventures]

Although I understand mandarin, I practice Cantonese

[@thebeachoflife]

That may be Sipaway island

[@qadventures]

Sup Mike!!! Long time...

[@thebeachoflife]

@@qadventures anything with motovlog in the title is an instant click for me 😅

[@edic2619]

17:00 Q looks Pinoy, but he sounds like. LA ☺

[@qadventures]

Hahaha!!! That's exactly what they were saying

[@JohnWilson-ql8ks]

were you going to a fire, that was the fastest moto blog i have ever seen. guess you didn't want for us to see much..

[@qadventures]

Oh John... please be patient. I am starting an entire new channel dedicated to moto and drone vlog. Please bear with me while I am organizing my 4k contents

[@edic2619]

Where is AI. At intro, you should let us see where Ai is. It gets confusing.

[@qadventures]

Sorry. My bodyguard is in the back seat

[@truthseeker-y1o]

It looks clean but i dont feel like running into Calvin at Center Mall he is always out there dry begging

[@qadventures]

😔

[@andyh5822]

You know I enjoy your realness and I message you often. Spending time in the Philippines and marrying someone in the Philippines I don't always want to think about what you are making waves about the squatters and the homeless. When you bring attention to that you make the Philippines a lesser of a country and make the people feel like that is all the country has. Focus on the beauty and the good things within the country. You have been giving the country a lot of back handed slaps do to your comments about the countries business practices. Sometimes you have to make lemonade out of sour lemons. You do a lot of good but I'm starting to worry about the negative view you show about the Philippines. Your buddy Scotty is a tool. He does videos about prostitutes and seems slimy and I thought I'd like his videos but I don't. Americans going to the Philippines should appreciate the culture just as we wish people who visit or come to live here in the states. Please I really appreciate what you do but go back to focusing on your focus of being in the Philippines. We know there is poverty we know there are homeless and people hungry. We know street foods are not in temperature and our stomachs get destroyed if we eat the foods. But it is life of the Filipino people. Eat it or don't. Buy a bike or don't. When I in the past make comments about the over population of dogs and cats on the streets and the smells in the air I've offended people in the Philippines. And people talk shit about the United States but their are still people dying to get here just as people are wanting to get to the Philippines. Remember that Filipino people watch your content. My wife does.

[@qadventures]

Wow!!! Andy... thank you so much for taking the time to bring this to my attention. I totally get what you are saying.

[@michaeldemarillac9992]

Just came over from Scotty's interview when he purchased a motorbike. Love your content. I have been riding all my life and would love a talking demo of how you negotiate traffic, why you choose a particular path to get through congested traffic, what to watch out for and what is the most common way to come to grief if not doing something right for the purpose of driving in the Philippines.
